The One With… The Alleged Car chase.For Your Eyes Only is the twelfth film in the Eon Productions James Bond series, the first to be directed by John Glen and the fifth to star Roger Moore. It was released on June 24, 1981. The Title Theme Tune was performed by Sheena Easton.James Bond, after visiting Tracy's grave and dropping someone who strongly resembles Blofeld down a chimney, is sent to find a British ship that accidentally fished out a mine and sank in the Mediterranean Sea. Unfortunately, it contains a secret device that sends orders to British nuclear missile submarines. To make matters worse, the two people who were charged with searching for the ship were murdered. While shadowing his target, he is captured and then saved via a crossbow bolt, after which he meets Melina Havelock, the Girl of the Week and an Action Girl with a crossbow who wants to get revenge for her murdered parents.This film is somewhat of a mish-mash of two Ian Fleming's short stories, "For Your Eyes Only" (Melina's plot) and "Risico" (the smugglers plot), with the climax from Live and Let Die thrown in and and the MacGuffin subplot created to put all these plots together.This was originally intended to be the follow-up to The Spy Who Loved Me, until the runaway success of Star Wars prompted Moonraker to be made instead. After seeing the reactions to the Denser and Wackier adventure in that movie, the producers chose to bring James Bond back to reality, to more seriousness, and to the Cold War climate. John Glen, who was the editor and second unit director of three of the previous films, was promoted to director. Michael G. Wilson, Albert R. Broccoli's stepson, would also write the screenplays along with veteran Richard Maibaum, helping with this transition of Bond to the 1980s. Under the command of Broccoli, Wilson, Glen and Maibaum, the James Bond franchise would return to a more serious and realistic atmosphere, with Bond surviving thanks to his courage and intelligence rather than gadgets.Preceded by Moonraker and followed by Octopussy. | |

Bloodless Carnage: Apostis falls from a cliff after receiving a throwing knife to the chest. He lands face down and isn't a mess of blood, flesh and bones when the people below turn his corpse over, with only subtle black and red marks on his face and a lot of grass on his body. The throwing knife didn't even get pushed further into his body, despite him falling from that height and landing on his chest, which is where the throwing knife hit him. | |

Ambiguous Situation | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_1f6983f7 | comment |
Ambiguous Situation: Is the vicar in on Blofeld's plot to kill Bond? Near the beginning, the ship carrying the ATAC accidentally pulls in an underwater mine, which causes massive damage and ends up sinking the ship. While this seems to just be a tragic accident, we later see that Kristatos' warehouse has a bunch of the same kind of mine, raising the question of whether it really was just a random event, or if he actually planted the mine and sank the ship himself. | |

Between My Legs: Famously on the movie's poster. Incidentally, to get the right amount of gluteal coverage, the model wore the swimsuit backwards. The two principal actresses argued over the poster, saying "those are MY legs". In fact, they were an artist's rendering of a third woman. Weirdly inverted in the DVD cover◊, with the Bond Girl between 007's legs! | |

Chekhov's Gun: The mine that sunk the St. Georges, similar mines are found in Kristatos' warehouse suggesting that the sinking was not an accident. Bond comes across the JIM diving equipment in Kristatos' warehouse. Naturally, a goon attacks him with it and Melina in the St George's wreck. The air tank that Melina leaves at the submerged ruins later comes in handy when she and Bond escape Kristatos. Heck, there's even a Chekhov's Parrot in this movie. | |

For Your Eyes Only / int_2311e2de | comment |
Accidental Aiming Skills: Subverted. As Bond emerges from a bush while fleeing from a Mook, he encounters another one aiming a crossbow directly at him. He fires... and the bolt hits the mook coming out of the bush to chase Bond. What seems baffling about this is that Bond doesn't even dodge the bolt. It just completely misses him. That's because this other "Mook" actually turns out to be Melina. | |

Defrosting Ice Queen | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_28c1d543 | comment |
Defrosting Ice Queen: Melina Havelock is arguably the iciest Bond girl. She initially thinks only of her revenge, and treats Bond harshly, seeing him only as a government agent that she doesn't know whether or not to trust. Throughout the movie, getting to know Bond better, she begins to feel romantic feelings for him. He makes her laugh and smile at a tragic time in her life, and a deleted scene shows her failing to hide her jealousy when she learns that Bond spent the night with the Countess. In the final scene of the movie, Melina becomes the happy and optimistic woman she was before her parents' murder, and makes love to Bond. | |

Kick the Dog | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: In the opening scene, Blofeld's attempt to have Bond assassinated, who was just coming back from visiting his deceased wife Tracy's grave. Kristatos slapping Bibi. A minor but amusing one; Locque is paying off Cuban assassin Hector Gonzales with a Briefcase Full of Money. Gonzales takes out a wad of cash and throws it to one of his Paid Harem. When Gonzales gets killed, Locque just picks up the briefcase and leaves, with his henchman snatching the wad from the girl as he walks past. Another minor example that foreshadows Kristatos' reveal as the bad guy: when Bond and Ferrara are leaving their meeting with him at the ice rink, he snubs Ferrara's offered hand after shaking Bond's. | |

Kill Steal: Subverted. Columbo demonstrates his knife-throwing skills on Kristatos (who's getting ready to demonstrate his own with a stiletto), lodging his blade in Kristatos' spine as Melina and Bond argue over whether or not it's right for her to put a crossbow bolt through the man's heart. One might think Melina would be angry at Columbo, but she seems happy enough to let it go (either because she realizes he may have saved both her and Bond's lives, or because she's just satisfied that Kristatos is dead). | |

Every Car Is a Pinto: When Locque's car is kicked over the cliff by Bond, it gets totalled but doesn't explode. Surprisingly, only one car explodes in the whole film: 007's gadget-laden Lotus Esprit. It blows up after one of Gonzales' henchmen triggers the car's anti-theft mechanism. It also symbolised a parting of the ways with the gadget fetishes of earlier 007 films. | |

Make It Look Like an Accident: When the St. Georges is sunk, the British MI6 call this an accident with an old World War II mine. But with the discovery of similar mines at Kristatos' warehouse comes the suggestion that it was not. Given that General Gogol hears about the loss of the St. Georges and decides to pursue it, it's very likely that Kristatos' himself hatched the plot to sink the St. Georges in order to sell the ATAC to Gogol. | |

Dropped a Bridge on Him | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_43a045de | comment |
Dropped a Bridge on Him: "Blofeld" returns as an unnamed, wheelchair-bound old man... and is comically killed in the opening sequence. By being dropped down a chimney. While pleading for his life. Kevin McClory, who owned the copyright to Blofeld, was trying to use it to wrestle for control of the series proper. Knocking off a Lawyer-Friendly Cameo of Blofeld was basically the owners' declaration of independence and burning of bridges to assert that Bond did not depend upon Blofeld as an antagonist. Which is all well and good until you realize it doesn't make much sense to do it at that time in Roger Moore's fifth outing and several more films since Blofeld's last appearance. | |

Written-In Absence | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_499499e6 | comment |
Written-In Absence: Bernard Lee, the original M actor, was suffering from stomach cancer as was too ill to film any scenes (he died shortly before filming wrapped). Out of respect, the producers and filmmakers chose not to recast the role of M right then and there, so they established early in the film by way of Ms. Moneypenny that M was "on leave" to explain his absence, and the scenes that would have normally featured him were rewritten with other government official characters acting in his place carrying out his usual tasks. M would return in Octopussy played by Robert Brown, but it's never established if Brown is meant to be the same character simply played by a different actor (as Bond usually is across his many recasts) or if he is meant to be a new character replacing the previous M (possibly even a promoted Admiral Hargreaves, Brown's character from The Spy Who Loved Me). | |

He falls to his death after Bond stabs him with a throwing knife while he's attempting to dislodge Bond's final piton. He certainly falls the longest out of all the villains. Subverted in that we actually see him hit bottom. Averted with Locque when we see his lifeless body fall out of the car as it comes to a rest at the bottom of the cliff. | |

Adaptation Amalgamation | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_5ee26f31 | comment |
Adaptation Amalgamation: Many scenes and other story elements were lifted from Ian Fleming's short stories or unused sequences in previously adapted novels, however the overall story arc that links them together was created for the film. The Havelocks and the sequence at the villa were adapted from the eponymous "For Your Eyes Only" short story; Kristatos, Columbo, Lisl, and much of the midsection of the film were taken from "Risico"; the identigraph was taken from Goldfinger; and the scene in which Bond and Melina were dragged underwater as shark bait was originally the climax from Live and Let Dienote Which also, arguably, inspired the scene where Bond cold-bloodedly but entirely justifiably kicks a henchman to his death. The sunken spy ship and the quest to recover its top secret ATAC transmitter were original creations. | |

Token Romance | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_713d994b | comment |
Token Romance: A common trope in Bond films, but this one has a particulously obvious example of it. There are almost no romantic moments at all between Bond and Melina Havelock (aside from one slightly flirtatious moment when Bond and Melina are touring Greece, and a deleted scene where Melina is clearly jealous that Bond had spent the night before with the Countess) before they wind up kissing in the last scene, almost as an afterthought. Made more egregious by the fact that Bond rejects the advances of Bibi Dahl, played by Lynn-Holly Johnson, as she is clearly too young for him, yet Carole Bouquet (the actress who plays Melina) is only a year older than Johnson. It may be true but Lynn-Holly Johnson (who was 23/24 at the time) was playing a 15 year old and to look her in the film you would think she’s only 15 (unlike most examples where is it is obvious that the actress is older than the character), possibly explaining why their relationship seems far more father/daughter like rather than romantic. | |

Put on a Bus: M is absent from the film (in the movie, he's said to be on leave) because Bernard Lee, the original M, was suffering from stomach cancer and too ill to film his scenes (he died during production). He would return played by Robert Brown in Octopussy. Possibly subverted in that Brown had already played the character of Admiral Hargreaves in The Spy Who Loved Me, so this could be seen more as a major promotion. | |

Bond Villain Stupidity: In The Teaser, "Blofeld" opts to toy Bond around in the helicopter, instead of just crashing it as soon as he takes control. Justified in this case by the fact that "Blofeld" had looked forward to killing Bond for a long time and had been crippled by him - he wanted Bond to suffer. Kristatos is guilty of it as well, choosing to kill Bond and Melina by dragging them behind his boat and assuming sharks ate them when they finally disappeared as opposed to just shooting them when he had the chance. | |

Murder by Remote Control Vehicle: In The Teaser, Blofeld (although he is never named as such) fakes a message from Bond's office and sends a helicopter to pick him up. He then kills the pilot and assumes remote control of the chopper. Taunting Bond, he causes the chopper to make several near misses on high buildings before steering it into a disused factory where it will inevitably crash. Bond (naturally) manages to disable the remote control and regain control of the helicopter before the crash. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Bond defeats the Mantis sub henchman by forcefully entangling him into the St. Georges wreckage, thus gaining time to escape. However, the mook is clearly seen dislodging his vehicle right after and watching Bond's Neptune escape, and yet he doesn't give chase, even although the Mantis has proved to be much faster and still has its drill arm presumably functional. The henchman and his sub are never seen again. | |

What the Hell Is That Accent? | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_8829dfa0 | comment |
What the Hell Is That Accent?: Blofeld speaks with a vaguely Greek accent, as a nod to Greek-American actor Telly Savalas, who played Blofeld in On Her Majesty's Secret Service. | |

Hot Sub-on-Sub Action | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_889f217f | comment |
Hot Sub-on-Sub Action: Melina and Bond's minisub is attacked by an enemy minisub. The bad guy's sub was actually piloted by the man who designed it, Graham Hawkes, who, amusingly, tried so hard to make the fight scene realistic (having been ordered to by the director, despite his earlier protests it was unsafe) that he almost killed Roger Moore's stunt double. | |

Batman Cold Open | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_88e7f8b8 | comment |
Batman Cold Open: The opening sequence has nothing to do with the actual plot, but there was a possibility Moore wouldn't return after Moonraker. The opening was designed in case a new actor had to play Bond, and they wanted to establish the backstory with Bond's wife. It also plays into a theme within the movie: do we have a right to avenge our lost loved ones? | |

Cool Car | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_8a295a46 | comment |
The destruction of Bond's Cool Car while fleeing Gonzalez's compound was a swipe at the overuse of gadget-laden vehicles during the Seventies. Bond and Melina are forced to flee in a beat-up clunker instead, resulting in one of the more memorable car chases in the franchise. | |

Recycled IN SPACE! | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_905438eb | comment |
Recycled In Space: The whole film is strongly reminiscent of On Her Majesty's Secret Service. In both films Bond is with a Countess, on a beach, threatened by mooks, kicks a gun out of a mook's hand, and he's wearing a tuxedo sans jacket. Both films show Bond at a casino with the aforementioned Countess. Both times the women are losing at baccarat. The opening teaser sequence shows Tracy Bond's grave and Blofeld in a neck-brace. Also the fact in this film Melina is Half-English, Half-Greek. In OHMSS Tracy was Half-English, Half-Italian. Both films have Bond allied with a crime syndicate figure who doesn't sell drugs. Bond also escapes in both films by riding in the car of the female lead who does the majority of the driving. Both films have a wedding scene and Bond riding in a helicopter piloted by someone else. Both films have Bond speaking with a "priest" at some point. Both films are set in the Alps at one point, show a Bond Girl on ice, have Bond on skis getting shot at, and have a bobsled track fight/battle sequence. Mountain climbers are shown in both at some point. Both films have a Germanic female character who is in charge of a girl/girls. Finally, in both films Bond and his crime syndicate ally assault a mountaintop lair. | |

Villainous Breakdown: Once 007 regains control of the remote-controlled chopper, Blofeld cries uncle and begs Bond to "put him down", even offering him a "steel delicatessen" as an odd concession. Bond happily drops off Blofeld by dumping him and his wheelchair down an industrial chimney for good. Considering the only thing Blofeld could offer was a lunch wrap, it's implied he was a far cry from the criminal kingpin he used to be. | |

Took a Level in Badass: Bibi spends much of the movie being far less interesting and much more annoying than Melina. But during the final confrontation at the Monastery she sure steps up when it matters by boldly looking Kristatos in the eye and telling him to go to hell. Then actually saves James' life by knocking Kriegler's arm away when he's about to shoot him. For both of these acts she gets smacked so hard she gets knocked across the room. | |

Orthodox monks wear black robes, trousers and normal shoes, have no hoods and sport glorious beards and long hair. Hardly an inconspicuous disguise. Exchange monks perhaps?...Q "does it better", although meeting with 007 in a confession booth is a very "Catholic" touch... | |

Adaptational Jerkass: In the books, Bill Tanner is said to be one of Bond's few friends in the service and they often enjoy rounds of golf together. It's hard to imagine that kind of closeness with this Tanner, who's blunt, impatient, humourless and condescending towards 007. It makes more sense when you realise that his part was meant for M. When he later reappears in the Brosnan and Craig films, it's with a characterization more like in the books. | |

Fatal Flaw | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_aba8065b | comment |
Fatal Flaw: Kristatos' disloyalty. He was a member of the Greek Resistance in WWII, but was secretly working for the Nazis. When the Nazis lost anyway, he switched his allegiance to the Soviets, despite the Nazis and Soviets being enemies, simply because they paid good money. And while in the Resistance, he made contacts with MI6 and through them, uses Bond to try and kill his rival Colombo, another ex-Resistance fighter who found out about his treachery. When MI6 and Bond found out about his treacherous nature, they were just as displeased as Columbo was when they discovered the truth and realized he intended to turn the ATAC over to Gogol. Ultimately, it bites him in the ass as he gets stabbed in the back from the man he betrayed, Columbo, who ended the feud with his death and adopted Bibi as her new sponsor. | |

Be Careful What You Wish For: Blofeld learns this lesson the painful way. When hanging by the skids of your own helicopter high over the ground, it's a dumb idea to say, "Put me down." 007 is only too happy to oblige, as he drops his opponent down the smokestack, wheelchair and all. | |

For Your Eyes Only / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: Blofeld's appearance was a swipe at Kevin McClory, whose unofficial Bond movie Never Say Never Again and legal issues surrounding it are the reason Blofeld only makes a Lawyer-Friendly Cameo here. The destruction of Bond's Cool Car while fleeing Gonzalez's compound was a swipe at the overuse of gadget-laden vehicles during the Seventies. Bond and Melina are forced to flee in a beat-up clunker instead, resulting in one of the more memorable car chases in the franchise. | |

It's All About Me: Bibi comes to the conclusion that Kristatos announcing that he's moving his household to Cuba (to avoid any possible heat about being exposed as a Russian agent) is somehow a plot to get into her pants. The way she says it indicates that it's just part of her general immaturity rather than the arrogance or egotism that usually brings about this trope. | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_bce16d24 | comment |
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Blofeld enjoys Bond's apparently futile attempt to escape his remote-controlled helicopter, deliberately flying it near buildings to frighten him. This gives Bond time to work his way into the cockpit where he can disconnect the cables to the remote system. Also later, when Kristatos has Bond and Melina hostage, he drags them behind his boat to be eaten by sharks (except he patches up Bond's open wound) for no apparent reason. | |

The '80s: Already in full swing, on the very first 80s Bond, no less. ESPECIALLY the theme song. The chase scene with all the Winter Sports was in direct response to the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid sparking a lot of interest in winter sports. Having Bibi, a world class figure skater, in the film was likely due to British men John Curry and Robin Cousins having won the previous two Gold Medals. | |

Its presence raises the possibility that the sinking of the St George's may not have been an accident. | |

Hypocrite | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: Bond repeatedly tries to talk Melina out of avenging her parents because she might end up getting herself killed. This comes from a guy who, at the beginning of the movie, killed the person who had murdered his wife and who later proceeds to kill Locque to avenge a fellow agent. Now, this could have been understood as Bond talking Melina out of it because he himself didn't feel any satisfaction from it, but the problem with that is that there is another film in the series where Bond once again isn't exactly opposed to the idea of a Roaring Rampage of Revenge. Although an argument can be made that Bond knows what he's talking about and doesn't want Melina going down that path. | |

The Chessmaster: Kristatos is likely to be this. Given that there are mines in his warehouse that are similar to the one that sunk the St. Georges, the implication is clear that he was the one who initiated the sinking, expected the British to investigate, and send them to knock off Columbo, all the while expecting a call from Gogol to obtain the ATAC. He nearly succeeds. | |

For Your Eyes Only / int_de02afbc | comment |
No MacGuffin, No Winner: Bond decides to destroy the ATAC in front of General Gogol and says "That's détente, comrade. You don't have it, I don't have it." Although this was actually more a case of We Win, Because You Didn't; by destroying the ATAC, Bond has prevented the Russians from gaining control of Britain's nuclear missile supply. For Britain, the loss of the ATAC is merely an inconvenience. Had the Russians gained the ATAC, the consequences for Britain would have been FAR worse. In fact, several times the film makes clear that destruction of the ATAC was acceptable to the British. The ATAC has a destruct mechanism that the operator was unable to trigger before drowning and the British officials made it clear that if the St. Georges had sunk in deeper water, it would have been preferable since recovery would have been impossible. | |

Casual Danger Dialogue: As standard for a Bond film, but a moment stands out during the car chase when Bond quips (while driving The Alleged Car offroad down the mountain) that he enjoys a drive in the country. Despite the fact they're in the middle of a life and death chase, Melina provides her bona fides as an Action Girl by finding the comment hilarious. | |

Groin Attack: Arguably happens to Melina Havelock during the under water excavation when she and Bond are attacked by a thug in an underwater excavation suit. While making a go at her his suit's claw hits her roughly in the groin area while she whimpers in fear. May not have been intentional on the part of the filmmakers and could have simply been a result of slow movement underwater. When one of Kristatos' men is attacked by sharks, the first one goes straight for the groin. | |

Anti-Climax: In previous films, Blofeld was established as Bond's arch nemesis, responsible for the death of his wife and master of disguise. So how does the final confrontation between him and Bond play out? He plays RC with Bond's helicopter before Bond gets back control and promptly drops Blofeld down a smoke stack. End of rivalry. This was necessary after Blofeld became off-limits due to the legal dispute between Kevin McClory and Eon Productions over the Thunderball copyrights. Also note that the bald villain is never named in the movie or credits. | |

Oddball in the Series | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_f068cba | comment |
Oddball in the Series: The film is notable for three distinct differences between all other Bond films: 1.) M does not appear in the film. However this was out of respect to Bernard Lee who had passed away during production. 2.) The performer, Sheena Easton, appears singing the song during the credits sequence. 3.) A Prime Minister appears on screen. This is also the oddball of the Roger Moore era in that it’s the only one with a grounded spy plot against a villain not seeking world domination. The light-hearted tone that defined the Roger Moore era is also notably absent and Bond is portrayed as a rather ruthless assassin in this film. | |

The Alleged Car: Bond's Lotus Esprit Turbo self-destructs when a mook tries to open it, forcing Bond and Melina to go through a car chase in the latter's beat-up Citroën 2CV. That said, it holds it own against two late-model Peugeot 504's. And that includes getting shot up and rolling down the side of a mountain. Roger Moore himself has stated that, of all the cars he ever drove in (including the legendary Lotus Esprit/submarine), this was his favourite. | |

Self-Destructing Security | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_f8351d7b | comment |
Self-Destructing Security: Bond's Lotus has an anti-theft measure which blows it up if it's broken into. Considering all the high tech gear in every car Bond drives, it's probably more to protect those things than the car itself. This was also the intended fate of the A.T.A.C., but the guy drowned before he could actually finish inputting the destruct sequence. | |

How the Mighty Have Fallen | |
For Your Eyes Only / int_f933e594 | comment |
How the Mighty Have Fallen: In the beginning of the film, Blofeld suddenly resurfaces years after laying low with a plan to exact revenge on 007 for foiling his numerous Evil Plans and causing the downfall of his criminal organization. By now, he's not only lost a lot of money, he's also permanently crippled, presumably from the injuries he sustained from the exploding oil rig at the end of Diamonds Are Forever or his collision with a tree in On Her Majesty's Secret Service, judging by the neck brace. In a few minutes of screentime, he tries to kill Bond while the latter is visiting the grave of his dead wife, kills one of his own men, and sadistically toys with Bond by attempting to kill him via a remote-controlled helicopter. But when Bond naturally manages to gain control of the chopper by disconnecting the wire which allowed Blofeld to control the helicopter, Blofeld goes into Villainous Breakdown mode, pathetically pleading with 007 to spare him. | |
